The Materiality of the Cloggs Cave Rockshelter's Painting, GunaiKurnai Country (East Gipplsland), Southeastern Australia

open access: yesArchaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The materiality of the white pigment motif at the Cloggs Cave rockshelter, near Buchan in GunaiKurnai Country (southeastern Australia), contains details about the cultural and environmental contexts in which the art was created and preserved. Here, we (1) present physicochemical analyses of the pigment composition; (2) explore implications for

Compositional Analysis of Transatlantic‐Era Glass Beads From Peki, Ghana: Provenance, Chronology, and Local Transformation of European Imports in the Gold Coast

open access: yesArchaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper reports elemental analysis results of 51 glass beads from Peki, an inland transatlantic trade node in southeastern Ghana. Using laser ablation–inductively coupled plasma–mass spectrometry (LA‐ICP‐MS), 91 compositional measurements were obtained, identifying three principal glass types: high‐soda, high‐lead, and potash‐lime glasses ...

Radiocarbon Dating of Several Ancient Jewish Oil Lamps from Rome

open access: yes, 2007
In this paper, we discuss how the radiocarbon dating of soot on oil lamps can help determine the chronology of the Jewish catacombs of Rome.

Methodological Concerns and Interpretation of Archaeometric Data in Recent Provenance Claims Concerning the Riace Bronzes

open access: yesArchaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Recent claims proposing a Syracusan provenance for the Riace Bronzes rely on selective petrographic, geochemical, and taphonomic evidence that raises crucial methodological questions. This paper critically reassesses the analytical premises and inferential logic underlying these claims, showing that they bypass established protocols in ceramic

AMS radiocarbon measurements from the Swedish varved clays.

open access: yes, 2000
The Swedish varve chronology, or Swedish Time Scale, is an annual chronology based upon the successive correlation of more than 1000 varve-thickness diagrams.

Towards an ‘absolute’ timing of biostratigraphic and environmental phases from the Saalian late glacial to the Weichselian pleniglacial in central Europe—Insights from a lacustrine succession in Lichtenberg, northern Germany

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
Palynological records are central to the biostratigraphic subdivision of the Late Pleistocene in central Europe. Yet many interglacial and interstadial phases—such as the Eemian, Brörup and Odderade—remain only poorly constrained in time due to limited numerical dating.

Environmental dynamics and timing of the late Eemian interglacial to the Weichselian pleniglacial at Lichtenberg, Germany: implications for the Oerel and Glinde interstadials

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
The terrestrial sediment archives of northern Germany provide important insights into Late Pleistocene climate variability, but continuous and well‐dated records remain rare. In particular, the age and stratigraphic position of the Oerel and Glinde interstadials within the Early Weichselian to pleniglacial transition remain poorly constrained.
